Tried about everything and the script always hangs <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" />

I'm getting really desperate here.

* Set the swap file back to dynamic, no change
* Re-installed the game
* Tried opening the save games under 1.29 (would not work of course)
* Tried 1.33, opens but script still hangs
* Tried 1.34 again, same story

Is there another way to get to Zandalor than through that staircase in the sewers? From the sewers, I also went to the executioner and killed him, but the door leading outside is locked (and can not open it with lock pick level 3, if for instance 4 would work, I can always try to level up somewhere else first and then continu the story like this.)

I have a 27th level wizzard atm, so I'm not very keen on restarting, moreover I don't know if the problem won't persist when I restart.
